- Title: The Hardy Boys – The Missing Camera
- wiki: link
As Frank (Rohan Campbell) goes down a wrong turn snooping into a town recluse who he mistakes for the man responsible for Dennis’ (Leonidas Castrounis) disappearance, Callie (Keana Lyn) makes a trip to see Gloria (Linda Thorson) who offers an opportunity to help with her scholarship problems (and what is she offering Fenton?), and Phil (Cristian Perri) helps Biff (Riley O’Donnell) look into finding her birth mother. The main takeaway for the Hardy Boys is that Frank’s extra-sight turns out to be far less reliable than he was hoping, leaving the young detectives back at square one.
The misadventures aren’t a complete disaster as Frank ends up making an unlikely friend (after, you know, stealing his dog and breaking into his house). But Frank, Chet (Adam Swain), and Belinda (Krista Nazaire) do manage to save him from the crazy high school townies razzing as part of Demon Week. He also gets the damaged tape dropped by Dennis in the woods. If it can be repaired, perhaps there might be a clue as to what happened to Dennis which is all the more important now that his condition appears to have worsened. And is Joe (Alexander Elliot) correct in suspecting the worst of Lucy (Sadie Munroe), or is he chasing shadows much like Frank was in this episode (and if not, just what is she hiding)?
